I do like that Van Der Ven but he also seems a bit brittle. Fast as fuck though.

I'd certainly take Kulusevski off them, as I'm sure other clubs would too.

How we didn’t score 6 for my forecast  of a  6-1 score line I’ll never know.
A fully deserved win though and really are a force at home aren’t we!
Looking forward to Ipswich, Liverpool Chelsea, already!
Up The Villa!

It should have been 6-1, you weren't to know that JJ wouldn't have his shooting boots on.

The away fans rammed off in the upper north with the first 10 or so rows blanked off worked better than giving away all the Witton upper .

How much of the Doug Ellis did they get?
The normal away section.
So curious why they did it like that for Spurs and not West Ham?  Lesson learned or different allocation?
Giving West Hame the entire Witton Lane was a mistake. It felt overwhelming to see opposition fans along the full length of the pitch and being given prime position. One reason may have been that Club thought we would not sell out  against them. Yesterday was much better as away fans were confined to usual spot and tucked away in upper north 10 rows back.

Fine by me and laughable how we toyed with the opposition yesterday but I still say it should have been Tamworth they would have given us a game!

Felt like a 6-1 -utter domination.  To think they were sniffing around JJ in the summer is sickening! I said last season they would not beat us into 4th place and that they would fall down the league this season and the manager would be found out. Another correct prediction!

We’re going to hammer someone soon aren’t we!
And I feel for Tamworth though as Spurs didn’t even deserve to be playing us!

I'd imagine the post game team meeting is a video  of all the goals we didn't score. I suppose it's a positive thing that after such a great performance, we've still got areas we can improve on. 2-1 flattered Spurs and will probably keep Ange in the job a bit longer.

Yes that’s a great point on post game as I think killing teams off is the next step . Ed Sheeran better worry as an Ipswich fan but it’s the chances against Liverpool and Chelsea have to take advantage of.

The difference in managers was shown by the way Postecoglou's only answer second half was to tell his players to kick ours

I don't think I've ever seen Unai as relaxed in a post-match interview as he was last night.

Not sure if it’s been mentioned but absolute kudos and respect to Porro.
When Digne went down poleaxed, Porro was the first to recognise the danger and rushed to Digne to ensure he was ok.
I looked like he was checking Digne hadn’t swallowed his tongue or something.

Well done that man.

Probably remembers what happened to Bentacur earlier in the season.

Have to say since the injury he has been really poor. Doesnt  seem the same player anymore. I reckon spurs might cash on him in summer
